About
Craving your favorite Chinese takeout? This Better-Than-Takeout Orange Chicken recipe brings those vibrant, tangy flavors home with minimal effort. By lightly dusting chicken breast in flour and pan-frying it, you get a satisfying, golden-brown crust without the hassle of a heavy deep-fry batter. The secret to its effortless, mouthwatering finish is tossing the hot, crispy chicken directly in Kikkoman® Gluten-Free Orange Sauce, allowing the sweet and savory citrus glaze to coat every bite perfectly.
Ingredients
- ¼ cup avocado or vegetable oil
- 1 pound chicken breast, cubed
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- ⅓ cup Kikkoman® Gluten-Free Orange Sauce
For Serving
- 2 cups cooked white rice
- 2 tablespoons green onions, sliced
Directions
- Heat oil over medium-high heat in a large skillet. While oil is heating, blot excess moisture from cubed chicken with paper towel. Add chicken, flour, salt and pepper to a bowl, stirring until chicken is coated.
- Using tongs, add cubed chicken to hot oil and cook for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until chicken is cooked through and outside is golden brown.
- Transfer hot chicken to a medium bowl and immediately toss in orange sauce. Serve hot with rice. Garnish with green onions.
